Split Airport to Hvar: Private Sea Transfer

Skip the ferry lines and road traffic. Arrive in Hvar by speedboat in a short time.

A private one-way transfer from Split airport to Hvar town combining a 5-minute minivan ride to the pier with a 1 hour 15 minute speedboat cruise. You choose day or night departure, travel with an English-speaking skipper, and avoid the congested ferries and coastal road. Bottled water, all taxes and fuel surcharge are included. Maximum one suitcase and one carry-on bag per traveler.

The experience

The transfer starts the moment you land. A minivan meets you at Split airport and drives you to the nearby pier in 5 minutes, handling your luggage and getting you to the water without the detour into town traffic. From there, a private speedboat takes over for the 1 hour 15 minute crossing to Hvar, with a professional skipper at the helm and bottled water on board. You pick whether you want a day or night departure when you book, so the timing fits your flight.

This route cuts out the slow ferries that pack hundreds of passengers and the congested coastal road that can add hours to your journey. The speedboat is air-conditioned and moves fast enough that you're in Hvar before the afternoon ferries even dock. The skipper speaks English and handles the navigation, so you sit back and watch the Adriatic pass.

Is this one for you?Book the day transfer if your flight arrives in the morning and you want to reach Hvar with daylight to spare. Choose the night transfer if you're landing in the evening and prefer to travel after dark. Either way, the speedboat gets you there faster and more reliably than ferries or the coastal road.
